Re: [cgiapp] CA-Subclassing + CAP::Authentication

["Alexander Becker" <suppressed>]

Hello!

Today, something about a half year and some free time later, i tracked
down the problem.

Providing a login-form, you set the action parameter of the form with the
full url, ignoring any path_info. If you use CGI::Application::Dispatch,
you use PATH_INFO to determine the Module and the runmode you wish to
execute. So, if you want to add support for CA::Dispatch, you should alter
your code like this:

sub login_box {
     my $self        = shift;
     my $query       = $self->_cgiapp->query;
     my $credentials = $self->credentials;
     my $runmode     = $self->_cgiapp->get_current_runmode;
     my $destination = $query->param('destination') || $query->self_url;
     my $action      = $query->url( -absolute => 1, -path_info => 1, );  #
<<<<<<< here is the difference! -path_info was added
[...]


HTH, A. Becker
